Chapter 257 Descend Zhang He and march into Yecheng

>,!

The drums vibrated and headed towards the head of the city. … ≦,

The soldiers of the Qi State fought bloodily, but they felt that they were gradually exhausted.

General Wu Ban was covered in blood, and his face was slightly pale. Chen Deng is not a general, and there are no traces of fighting on his body, but the dark circles under his eyes are very deep.

Every night, the Wei army would attack the city.

In such an environment, sleep is very light.

"General, the Wei army's offensive has become more aggressive. We have few soldiers, and I'm afraid we won't be able to resist it. Did you ask the king for help and send the captain of the city gate, the captain of the division and other soldiers and horses to come to help? ”

Wu Ban condescended to look down at the city, and saw the dense Wei army, even if he was born brave, his scalp was numb.

"Hey, hey." Chen Deng smiled, and then said: "Now we are surrounded on all sides, and there is no communication with the outside of the city. The more fierce the offensive of the Wei army represents the situation in the north, which is more and more favorable to us. ”

"Cao Cao is in a hurry to attack the city?" Wu Ban was thorough at one point.

"Hey!" Chen Deng smiled, and then said: "The general is calm and impatient, just be handsome and strong, and fight to the end." In my opinion, the chance of victory is near. ”

"No."

Wu Ban suddenly agreed.

Under the command of Chen Deng, Wu Yi, Wu Ban and others, although the situation in Chaoge was a little sinister, it could barely support it. On the contrary, Yuan Shao's side couldn't support it.

Not long ago, Qinghe County betrayed Yuan Shao, and the county guard closed the city gate to declare allegiance to Zhang Shuang.

At the same time, Pingyuan, Guangping and other counties, the city betrayed Yuan Shao uncountable.

The state of Zhao, which Yuan Shao had condensed with generosity, collapsed almost instantly because of the killing of Wen Chou's 150,000 iron horsemen. The key is that Zhang Shuang approached the city with 90,000 infantry troops, even if Yuan Shao was angry. also has the strength, but he didn't dare. You can't go out of the city to quell the rebellion.

Theoretically, Zhang Shuang has occupied forty percent of Jizhou.

"The widow treats others with kindness. I didn't think that they would all betray me in the end. In the palace of King Zhao, Yuan Shao met with his subordinates, Tian Feng, Feng Ji, Guo Tu, Gao Lan, Yan Liang and others.

Yuan Shao paced back and forth, angry.

"Historically, there have been many people on both ends of the snake and rat, in such a situation. Betraying the king is also a frequent occurrence. The king doesn't have to be angry, the key is how to deal with Zhang Shuang. ”

Frustrated and persuasive.

"How to deal with Zhang Shuang??? Now we have to close the gates and defend Yecheng. Waiting for Cao Mengde's reinforcements, what else can be done? Yuan Shao wanted to be excited, and gave full play to the majesty of King Zhao, who was lonely in the south and stood on his own, but he could only be extremely discouraged.

"Welcome back to General Zhang He, everything will be solved."

Frustrated said.

Zhang He??? In the face of Huaxiong's 300,000 iron horsemen, can he come back? Yuan Shao's eyes lit up. Then he was discouraged.

"You just need to work together inside and outside, and you can come back." Frustrated said. Then he said: "In the face of such a situation, General Zhang He stubbornly defended the camp and did not surrender to Huaxiong. It can be seen that loyalty. It only takes advantage of the night for General Zhang He to lead his troops back. He also sent General Yan Liang to lead his troops out of the city to respond, and he could welcome back 100,000 infantry troops. So we have 250,000 infantry troops. Yecheng is impregnable. Just wait for King Wei to defeat Chen Deng. The danger of Zhao was solved. Even if Zhang Shuang occupies Youzhou, he can't hold it. ”

"This!" Yuan Shao hesitated slightly.

"That's what the prison said. Yes, one line. Tian Feng praised when he heard this.

In the past few years, Guo Tu has been poor. He also agreed. Yuan Shao was more resourceful and less decided, but under the unanimous opinion of the strategists, he could still make decisions.

"Okay, Gongzhi, the widow ordered you to go to Zhang He's camp." Yuan Shao looked at Guo Tudao.

"No." Guo Tu promised.

At night, Guo Tu led more than ten elite horsemen, walked out of the north of the city, and galloped towards Zhang He's camp.

When the country was in danger, Guo Tu didn't have much selfishness in his heart. Hell-bent on doing this.

"This time, I will do my best to turn the tide."

…………

Yuan Shao's decision was a little late, and Li Hui arrived at Zhang He's camp first.

Of course, Li Hui didn't come in in a grand way. It was secretly welcomed in by Zhang He's cronies. After Li Hui announced the edict and named Zhang He as the marquis of 8,000 households, and the generals made the marquis of Qi.

basically took control of the camp. However, it is not yet the time for Zhang He to surrender, Li Hui is ready to send troops to Yecheng with Zhang He, and under Yecheng, announce the news of Zhang He's surrender.

Let the Yecheng army collapse.

Leaving tomorrow, Li Hui has nothing to do and observes the camp with Zhang He.

"The general's barracks are really mysterious." Walking with Zhang He in the camp of the army, Li Hui exclaimed. This sentence came from the bottom of his heart, because he had also visited Zhang Shuang's camp and found that the layout of this camp was not worse than Zhang Shuang.

"Master Li has an overreputation." Zhang He is very modest and low-key.

"It's definitely worthy of the name, even if the king is afraid of it, he will praise it." Li Hui shook his head with a smile.

Zhang He smiled slightly, very happy in his heart. Even if Li Hui is not Zhang Shuang himself, he is also Zhang Shuang's close minister, and his words, coupled with the reward, made Zhang He feel that it was very right to take refuge in Zhang Shuang this time.

In the chat, there is a fast malay newspaper. said that Guo Tu had arrived.

"Guo Tu?" Zhang He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "Guo Tu is one of Yuan Shao's four great advisers, why don't I detain him and dedicate him to the king." ”

Li Hui pondered for a moment, but said with a smile: "Don't worry, depending on what he says, there may be a surprise." ”

"Okay." Seeing this, Zhang He naturally did not refute and nodded.

Soon after, Zhang He returned to the Chinese army's tent and hid Li Hui behind the screen. Then he met with Guo Tu.

"General Zhang." Guo Tu walked in, bowed and saluted.

"Sir, don't be polite." Zhang He hurriedly got up from the handsome seat and greeted him.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Guo Tu sat down. Then he raised his fist and said to Zhang He: "General Wenchou has been defeated, and the king has gotten the news." Now is the autumn of peril, and the general can abide by the camp, and the loyalty can be seen in the sun and the moon. The king was very pleased, and sent me to comfort the general, and made the general a general, and made the general a general, and a marquis of ten thousand households. ”

As he spoke, Guo Tu took out the edict of King Zhao from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Hedao.

"I can't be thankful for the end." Zhang He accepted the edict with a grateful face, but he didn't think so. "The state of Zhao has collapsed, this is just a reward on paper, Wanhu Hou??? is really generous, and has the ability to seal my 100,000 households. ”

Guo Tu didn't know that Zhang He had rebelled, so he hit the railway while it was hot: "Although the current situation is unfavorable to our Zhao State, there is King Wei in the south who is attacking Chaoge, and King Wei has many cavalry. It can compete with Huaxiong's 300,000 cavalry. The general only needs to take advantage of the night to head south and return to Yecheng. The Qi State will have no choice but to take us, and when the time comes, it will naturally withdraw its troops. ”

"That's a good idea, but it's a pity I've betrayed it." Zhang He said secretly in his heart, and then worried: "But Huaxiong's cavalry is 300,000, and it is a long way to the south, I am afraid that I will be attacked by him, and the whole army will be wiped out at that time." ”

"If you march at night, you will be fine. When they arrived near Yecheng, the king would send General Yan Liang out of the city to respond. Guo Tu said excitedly.

"This." Zhang He pretended to hesitate, but he was thinking in his heart.

"According to the order given to me by the king, I will go south to Yecheng and then announce my surrender. Shaking the hearts of the Yecheng army, Yuan Shao was defeated without a fight. If I can kill Yan Liang and swallow Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses in the process. Wouldn't it be more certain to win? More credit? "Zhang He is open-minded and ambitious. He agreed: "Okay, I'll raise troops overnight and return to Yecheng." ”

"The general is so decisive." Guo Tu was overjoyed and exclaimed. Then he raised his fist and said: "Without further ado, I will go back and report to the king, and I will answer when the time comes." ”

"Okay." Zhang He applauded and personally sent Guo Tu out of the camp. Then he returned to the big tent of the Chinese army and invited Li Hui out.

"The general wants to capture the flag?" Li Hui had already understood and said with a smile.

"The credit is not afraid of more. The king is generous, if I kill Yan Liang, I will definitely not be stingy and seal me with ten thousand households. Zhang He laughed, full of heroic spirit.

"If you kill Yan Liang, you will swallow another of Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses. I will definitely make a proposal to the king, and then seal the general 5,000 households. Li Hui said with a smile.

"Hahahaha!" Zhang He laughed loudly, and his ambition was about to move.

That night, the strategy was finalized. Li Hui wrote a letter and ordered Huaxiong to lead 300,000 cavalry to pretend to pursue. Zhang He pulled out the camp overnight, went out day and night, and returned to Yecheng with his troops.

At the same time, Zhang Shuang's camp outside Yecheng City was inside the Chinese army's big tent. Zhang Shuang and Xun You sat down according to their priorities.

"This Zhang He actually gave me a surprise, if Yan Liang is killed, then the Zhao State will definitely perish, not to mention Cao Cao, even if Liu Bei comes together, it will be over."

Zhang Shuang was very surprised when he got the news.

"Cooperate with it." Xun You said with a smile.

"Hmm." Zhang Shuang responded. Then he asked Dian Wei to find him and ordered him to lead 40,000 elite soldiers and pretend to go north to intercept Zhang He.

………

At the same time, Yuan Shao was very pleasantly surprised after hearing the news.

"Zhang He really didn't betray me, with his new force to join, I can sit back and relax."

Zhao Wanggong, inside the main hall. Yuan Shao paced back and forth, very happy. Guo Tu, Fu Zhu, Feng Ji, Tian Feng, Gao Lan, Yan Liang and others were also very excited.

"King, now General Zhang He is the key, you can't let Zhang Shuang send troops to intercept it, please send spies to listen to the news. I am ready to have 50,000 elite troops to meet General Zhang He. ”

Yan Liang pleaded.

"That's for sure." Yuan Shao nodded.

Immediately, Yuan Shao issued an order to order President Gao to guard the city with 100,000 elite soldiers. Ordered Yan Liang to prepare 50,000 elite soldiers and wait for the opportunity to move. Ordered Guo Tu to select spies to listen to movements outside the city.

"Everything is ready, only Zhang He is owed to enter the city. When the time comes, it will be up to Cao Mengde to fight a bloody path for me. After the arrangement, Yuan Shao was in a happy mood and laughed.

Under this illusion, under the situation, Zhang He's 100,000 troops quickly approached Yecheng. And there was a brief confrontation with Huaxiong's cavalry, and there were casualties and defeats in each other.

And Zhang He's army returned to the north of Yecheng City step by step, about a hundred miles. Here is the general Dian Wei led 40,000 elite soldiers to intercept.

The news was sent back to Yecheng. (To be continued......)
